1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveWhile oxytocin is commonly used for the prevention of uterine atony, its pharmacology may be affected by a prior history of caesarean delivery. The objective of this study was to determine the 50% effective dose (ED

methodsThis was a parallel-group, double-blind, dose-response study using Dixon's up-and-down sequential allocation method to estimate the ED

resultsThe ED

conclusionThe initial bolus dose of oxytocin needed to prevent uterine atony was higher in parturients with prior caesarean delivery than in parturients without prior caesarean delivery. Uterine scarring may contribute to the increased oxytocin requirements of the former group. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR1900023474; investigator: Wei CN; date of registration: 30 May 2019.
